I Took a Vacation

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving feast. I've been to a hockey game, some practices, and I'm going to more. It got to 38 degrees today, and I took a walk outside. Mac and I saw a movie called Penguins of Madagascar. I've decided to transcribe a conversation about it here, a la Lee and Peter's independent movie review. Except our movie was the opposite of independent, pretty much.

Me: So what did you think of Penguins of Madagascar?
Mac: It was cool.
Me: Who was your favorite character?
Mac: Dave the Octopus.
Me: Why did you like him?
Mac: Because he was funny.
Me: I was really glad when they turned the penguins cute again at the end.
Mac: [Silence]
Me: Weren't you?
Mac: Uh huh.
Me: How much did you like the movie?
Mac: 5 stars.
Me: Anything else you want to add?
Mac: There was a little cute thing. It kind of looked like a chickmunk.
Me: Do you think people should go see it?
Mac: Mmm Hmm!
Me: Did you like it better or worse than Monsters University?
Mac: It was worse.
Me: Did you like it better or worse than Free Birds?
Mac: Better.

I think that's all you need to know about Penguins of Madagascar, actually. My mom, husband, and older son got to see Mockingjay, which they seemed to enjoy.
